This process can be carried out using either the Web Console or commands.
If operating with commands, perform the backup synchronous process, then carry out the backup for the transaction volume that you need to backup. For details on commands, refer to the following:
Starting backup synchronous process: swststartsync
Checking the status of backup synchronous process: swstsyncstat
Executing backup: swstbackup
Checking backup status: swstbackstat
Note
The swstbackup command causes an error if it is executed before the transaction and backup volumes have entered equivalency maintain state.
The device map cannot be specified while backup is processing.
When the "Chapter 5 Backup Operation Using Suspend/Resume Function" is used for synchronous high-speed backup, the operations listed below cannot be performed from the Web Console. Enter the appropriate command for operation.
If one transaction volume has multiple synchronous processing (ie, EC sessions), specify the backup volume and cancel only the specified EC session (swstcancelsync command).
